Play Her Way
The Play Her Way strategy affirms the NSW Government’s commitment to empower women and girls to have full access to opportunity and choice. Women and girls must be recognised for their contribution, valued for their diversity and able to participate in sport at all levels in environments that foster a strong sense of belonging.
Play Her Way’s strategy for success is built upon the foundational pillars She Belongs, She Plays and She Wins.
Each pillar represents a different strategic focus to address gender inequality and increase participation of women and girls in sport – both on and off the field.
The pillars range from developing inclusive cultures within sporting organisations, system-wide approaches to dismantle barriers for sport participation and working with partners from across the eco-system to invest in girls’ and women’s sport.

Teenage Advisory Committee
The Teenage Advisory Committee is an initiative of the Play Her Way Strategy. The strategy has a focus on addressing the low rates of participation among adolescent girls after research found a 23 per cent gap in participation rates among boys and girls aged 15-17 in NSW.
The Teenage Advisory Committee will provide advice to the NSW Government on how to break down the barriers preventing teenage girls participating in sport and propose new and innovative ways to keep teenage girls involved.
The teenage girls – ranging in ages 16 to 19 from across NSW – were chosen following a state-wide process to identify a group who could be a voice on some of the biggest issues affecting young women in sport.
Innovation Hub
The Innovation Hub was developed to showcase innovative sport programs and take a deep dive into the latest insights, research, and solutions aimed at increasing the participation of women and girls in sport, both on and off the field.
